Trump Threatens Musk: "Very Serious Consequences" if He Supports Democrats
U.S. President Donald Trump threatened his former ally Elon Musk on Saturday, saying that he would face "very serious consequences" if he starts donating to the Democratic Party.
In an interview with NBC News, when asked about what would happen if Musk begins supporting Democrats who oppose taxes and spending cuts, Trump stated, "If he does that, he will face very serious consequences."
Trump also said that he has no intention of restoring friendly relations with Musk.
When asked whether he plans to talk to Musk anytime soon, Trump replied, "I am too busy with other things... I have no intention of talking to him."
The conflict between Trump and Musk erupted this week, triggered by the billionaire's criticism of the tax and spending cut bill supported by the White House. The dispute quickly escalated into personal attacks on social media and attracted widespread attention in U.S. political and business circles.
